The Cartographers’ Guild is a forum created by and for map makers and aficionados, a place where every aspect of cartography can be admired, examined, learned, and discussed. Our membership consists of professional designers and artists, hobbyists, and amateurs—all are welcome to join and participate in the quest for cartographic skill and knowledge.

Although we specialize in maps of fictional realms, as commonly used in both novels and games (both tabletop and role-playing), many Guild members are also proficient in historical and contemporary maps. Likewise, we specialize in computer-assisted cartography (such as with GIMP, Adobe apps, Campaign Cartographer, Dundjinni, etc.), although many members here also have interest in maps drafted by hand.

It's been a few months since I've done any mapping, but I have been very busy with a comics studio I've since joined. After doing some work for them after they posted in the "Mapmaking Requests" forum, I decided jumped in feet first and have a couple comics of my own in progress. I've also revamped our website and plan to do even more with it over the coming months.

Anyways, if you've got a few extra minutes stop by and check out what I'm working on.
